This Murano glass candle holder is made by hand on the island of Murano, Italy. The island in the Venetian Lagoon has been synonymous with Murano glass for centuries. The piece is produced under the Italian brand Mazzega and continues that glassmaking tradition. Each candle holder is shaped individually rather than mass-produced by machine.

Design: A Cobalt-Blue Bell on a Clear Twisted Stem

The cup has a bell shape with a gently flared rim. Its deep cobalt-blue glass is densely flecked with yellow, orange, red, white and light blue, arranged in a soft spiral that gives the pattern a sense of movement. Below the cup sits a round knop in the same pattern. It leads into a completely clear twisted stem and a wide, round foot.

The contrast between the colourful cup and the clear stem gives the candlestick a light, airy silhouette. By candlelight the transparent glass catches the glow, while the blue cup adds a rich note of colour to the table.

No Two Pieces Are Exactly Alike

Because every Murano glass candle holder is handmade, the shade and density of the colour flecks can vary slightly between pieces. These variations are not defects. They are a natural characteristic of hand-blown glass and give each piece its own character.

Material and Care

The candle holder is made from blown glass and is dishwasher safe. According to the manufacturer, its colour and shine will not fade over time. That makes it easy to live with every day, not only on special occasions.

The Creano Jumbo tea glass is an XXL-size complete tea set with an integrated stainless steel infuser, glass lid and matching saucer — a practical answer for anyone who wants to brew larger quantities of loose-leaf tea without drips or extra equipment. Holding 450 ml (540 ml filled to the rim), the glass works equally well for everyday tea drinking and as a gift for tea lovers.

Product overview

Each Jumbo tea glass set includes four parts: a rounded glass cup, a matching fine-mesh stainless steel infuser, a domed glass lid with a silicone loop, and a glass saucer. The fine mesh strains out even small tea leaves and herbs, so the cup stays clear after steeping. The lid is more than decorative — once steeping is done, the infuser can be lifted straight onto the upturned lid, keeping drips off the table.

Material and quality

The Jumbo tea glass is made from heat-resistant borosilicate glass, which handles temperature changes well and holds up to daily use without becoming fragile. The infuser is crafted from durable stainless steel, and its fine-pored mesh suits loose-leaf tea, herbs, and finer blends alike. The silicone loop on the lid lets you lift the hot glass lid without burning your fingers.

How to use it

Brewing tea with the Jumbo tea glass is simple: place the infuser inside the cup, add loose-leaf tea or herbs, pour over hot water, and cover with the lid. Once the tea has reached the desired strength, remove the lid, turn it upside down on the saucer or table, and set the infuser directly on top.

Care instructions

The Jumbo tea glass is dishwasher-safe, which keeps daily cleanup simple, and the glass parts are also microwave-safe. It’s best to rinse the infuser by hand after use.

Why choose this product

The Jumbo tea glass combines four items that are usually bought separately — cup, infuser, lid, and saucer — into one complete set. This simplifies tea brewing, saves cupboard space, and makes a strong gift choice.

Who it’s for

The Jumbo tea glass suits anyone who regularly drinks loose-leaf or herbal tea and wants a practical, drip-free solution without a separate teapot.

Yes, the glass cup, lid, and saucer are all dishwasher-safe and can also be used in the microwave.

How do I stop the tea from dripping after removing the infuser?

Once steeping is done, remove the lid, turn it upside down, and place the infuser directly on top.

The infuser is made from stainless steel with a fine-pored mesh suitable for loose-leaf tea and finer herbal blends.

Does the Jumbo tea glass make a good gift?

The Cold food tray is one of uBent’s simplest — and most considered — pieces. A thin oak serving tray measuring 30 × 17 cm, designed with exactly as much as is needed and nothing more. Its elegance comes from restraint: one material, one form, one clear purpose.

But the details speak the language of handcraft. Both ends of the tray are gently bent upward using the steam-bending technique — precisely enough to make it easy to pick up from the table with your fingers. This is not purely aesthetic. It is deliberate ergonomics, making the piece feel natural and effortless in use.

Why oak?

Oak is Northern Europe’s most valued hardwood — dense, durable, beautifully grained, and timeless. The Cold food tray is made from 4 mm oak, thick enough to carry food comfortably, thin enough that the tray itself takes no significant space on the table. The finish is linseed oil — natural, food-safe, and perfectly suited to bringing out oak’s warm, natural lustre.

Linseed oil protects the wood from moisture, deepens the grain, and becomes more beautiful over time. Unlike lacquered surfaces, it does not coat the wood with a film. It penetrates and keeps the material alive.

What to use the Cold food tray for

The name suggests cold cuts — but the Cold food tray is considerably more versatile than that. It works beautifully for:

• Cold cuts, charcuterie, and antipasti
• Cheese and accompaniments
• Bruschetta, crostini, and small starters
• Biscuits, chocolate, and confectionery
• Breakfast table layouts alongside other natural wood pieces
• Food styling and table décor

At 30 × 17 cm it hits a practical sweet spot — generous enough for real use, compact enough to move easily and store without fuss. At just 150 g, it is also featherlight to handle.

A natural pairing with other uBent pieces

The Cold food tray sits naturally alongside other uBent oak and wood serving pieces. Pair it with the nut bowl for snacks and nibbles, the trivet for hot drinks and pots, and the wine bottle holder for a complete table setting that speaks the same language of natural materials and Estonian handcraft throughout.

The wine bottle holder is one of those rare objects where technical mastery and aesthetic beauty meet perfectly. At first glance, the bottle simply appears to hover in mid-air — defying gravity, unexpected, elegant. Behind this illusion lies precise craftsmanship: steam-bent wood shaped so precisely that it holds the bottle in place through nothing more than physics and form.

uBent is an Estonian craft studio whose entire product range is made using the steam-bending technique. This ancient and increasingly rare method allows wood to bend without breaking — yielding organic, fluid forms that cannot be achieved by machining or pressing. Every wine bottle holder is a piece of handcraft, backed by years of accumulated skill.

2 wood species — each with its own character

The wine bottle holder is available in nine different wood species, each with its own unique grain, colour, and natural texture. Choose the one that best matches your kitchen style, home interior, or the person you are giving it to:

• Apple — warm reddish-brown, dense and beautiful
• Plum — dark and deep, with a very characterful grain

Every wine bottle holder is finished with natural oil, which brings out the wood’s inherent beauty and protects the material through long-term use. The oil treatment emphasises the grain and gives the piece a matte, natural lustre that improves with age.

More than an accessory — a conversation piece

This object carries more than functional value. The wine bottle holder is something your eye returns to. On a kitchen counter, a dining table, or a sideboard at a gathering, it generates questions, starts conversations, and leaves an impression. It suits a modern minimalist interior just as naturally as a warm, rustic home setting.

Pair it with other uBent lifestyle pieces — such as the the fruit bowl, or other steam-bent wood lifestyle products — to create a cohesive, natural, and entirely individual table setting.

The gift a wine lover will not forget

The wine bottle holder is one of those gifts that stays with people. It is practical, beautiful, and tells a story — of a time when objects were made by hand, of a material that grows in forests, and of a skill that has no place in mass production. It makes an excellent birthday gift, Christmas present, housewarming gift, or simply a thoughtful surprise for anyone who appreciates good wine and honest craftsmanship.

The name Nut Bowl is, according to uBent’s maker, more of a suggestion: what you put inside is entirely up to you. But the nut bowl is made from walnut wood — and that gives it something no ordinary bowl can claim. Walnut is one of the most beautiful and sought-after timber species in the world: deep brown, warmly lustrous, richly grained. It is not a wood used lightly.

uBent is an Estonian craft studio whose entire range is made using the steam-bending technique. This rare and demanding method allows wood to take on organic, flowing forms that cannot be achieved by machining or pressing. Every nut bowl is handcrafted — unique, made slowly, and intended to last.

32 cm across — larger than you might expect

The name might suggest something small for a handful of snacks. In practice, the nut bowl measures 32 × 8 cm across and 6 cm in height — a generously proportioned table piece. Its long, low shape comfortably holds nuts, olives, biscuits, fruit, or any small snack, and presents it beautifully.

The shallow, wide form is part of what makes this bowl so elegant. Its contents are fully on display — styled, almost exhibited. This is not a bowl that hides in a cupboard. It lives on the table because it looks good there.

Food-safe oil wax finish

Every nut bowl is finished with a food-safe oil wax — a material that is safe for contact with food and hands. This finish protects the wood, deepens the natural beauty of the grain, and gives the piece a warm, matte lustre that improves with age. Oil wax does not coat the surface with a film. It penetrates the wood, keeping it alive and expressive.

Care is straightforward: hand wash only. Avoid the dishwasher and prolonged soaking in water — as with all quality wooden items.

A natural companion to other uBent pieces

The nut bowl belongs to uBent’s family of steam-bent lifestyle products. It pairs naturally with the wine bottle holder — the piece that makes a bottle appear to float in mid-air — and with the candy bowl for a cohesive, handcrafted table setting. A table that uses steam-bent wood has an unmistakable character.

Also available in a taller version: Nut Bowl (tall) — same material, slightly different proportions.

The handcraft gift that earns its place

If you are looking for a gift that is both practical and beautiful, the nut bowl is an excellent choice. It suits housewarming occasions, birthdays, Christmas, and any event where you want to give something with genuine character and lasting value. It will not end up in a drawer. It will go on the table — and stay there.
